Phew ! This is a complete 180 from the man who brought us `Star Wars: The Latest Jedi`. Rian Johnson`s `Knives Out` sees one of the most exciting ensembles trapped in a murder mystery. There is bad blood and a lot of deception buried under the facade of a happy family. Now under the looking glass, these characters show their true colors and possibly criminal motives.

Written and directed by Rian Johnson, `Knives Out` is a homage to Agatha Christie mystery novels. It is about a wealthy crime novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer) who invites his extended dysfunctional family to his mansion on his 85th birthday in hopes of reuniting them all. However, during the birthday party, Harlan is found dead by the family and Detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) is called to investigate the case. Soon enough, everyone in the family becomes a suspect.
